Score (Time required to complete the task): ___(sec) Interpretation of score: The timed “Up & Go” score is correlated with the client’s balance, gait speed and functional capacity. The score, in seconds, can be interpreted as follows: <10 sec <20 sec 20 – 29 sec >30 sec ...
Timed Up and Goactivities of daily livingelderlyThe Timed Up and Go (TUG) assesses functional mobility. The clinical usefulness and interpretation of cutoff scores for the original TUG, however, is unclear with community ambulators. Adding a cognitive or manual task to the TUG or manipulating ...
A chair enabling standardized performance testing under Timed Up and Go procedures. The chair has a seat portion, a base portion, a support element, a force sensor, a timer, and a processor. The processor initiates timing of the standardized performance test in response to receiving an output ...
One-minute stair climbing, 50-ft walk and timed up-and-go displayed adequate responsiveness (≥ 80% of hypotheses confirmed), while 5-min walk did not (40% of hypotheses confirmed). The absolute MICs for improvement were 45.5 m for 5-min walk, 20.0 steps for 1-min stair climbing, ...
Functional measures included the Timed Up and Go test (TUG), the five times sit-to-stand test (5-STS) and handgrip strength. Gait parameters were obtained using the GAITRite® system. Results Participants with a fear of falling were frailer and presented more depressive symptoms and worse ...
Background: We investigated association of a score incorporating relative grip strength (RGS) and timed up and go (TUG) test with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in older Chinese. Methods: Both RGS and TUG scores were classified into tertiles (0
time the performance. Instructions “Rise from the chair, walk to the line on the floor, turn, return to the chair and sit down again”. Score (Time required to complete the task): ___(sec) Interpretation of score: The timed “Up Go” score is correlated with the client’s balance...
1,2 Sleep disturbances are among its most common manifestations: Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and nocturnal sleep fragmentation affect up to 90% of patients with PD.3,4 Sleep disturbances reduce quality of life, impair daytime functioning, and are associated with motor vehicle crashes.5-7 ...
(ID). This is the first study which aims to examine the association between DBI score and its two sub-scores, anticholinergic and sedative burden, with two objective measures of physical performance, grip strength and timed up and go, and a measure of dependency, Barthel Index activities of ...
based on his observation and data collected on the person, assigns a score but does not evaluate the person’s effective performance at any time. In this type of performance accuracy-based assessment, the test score does not reflect the temporal aspects of execution and does not consider the ...
